Reno County Health officials announced plans Thursday to begin administering 500 doses of COVID-19 vaccine received on Wednesday to elderly residents identified by local medical providers as at the highest risk.
The shots, making up the first round of vaccinations under Phase 2 of the state’s distribution plan, will occur along with continued administration of the second doses to healthcare workers under phase 1.
Health officials, meanwhile, now plan to announce next week how the public can register online for a future vaccine appointment.
The Reno County Health Department, Hutchinson Regional Medical Center, Hutchinson Clinic, and Prairie Star Health Center are working together on the distribution as the “Reno County Medical Collaborative,” according to a county news release.
